Previous remarks

General notes

  • Use Microsoft® Word;
  • Be sure to use Heading 1, Heading 2, Heading 3, and Normal styles (or their equivalents in your version of Word) so that the published work can be formatted correctly, with due regard to the structure of your chapter;
  • Use Arial Times New Roman 10pt 12pt font for body text;
  • Images and tables should not include chapter numbers;
  • Do not include an abstract in the file you submit. Instead, please add your abstract, along with your list of contributors, from the Chapter Abstracts page.
    • Sandy reports inquiries regarding single or double spacing (personal correspondence, September 26, 2009). Please stick with single spacing for body text, and automatic (Word default) spacing for section headings; see the revised template (chapter_template2009b1.doc, 2009.10.02, above) for examples and notes on line spacing between ¶¶ and §§.

Learning Objectives


Please follow these guidelines when specifying or revising learning outcomes for chapters:
  • Use active voice;
  • Indicate target-audience(s);
  • Express as outcomes rather than processes (Henley, Discovering Instructional Design 4, 2009.05.25 [link update, 2010.12.06]); and
  • List objectives with no indentations.

Examples
  • [Please add examples about here.]
  • ...

Examples and suggestions are welcome; please check the discussion tab on this page for details.

Introduction


Main Sections in Chapters


Main section headings, all level 2
  • Subsection Headings, level 3, including one for ...
  • Websites Mentioned in each Section [Changed: was "Chapter"!]
    • There are several rationales for appending lists of websites mentioned to sections, rather than compiling them at the end of chapters. For instance, section by section listings will:
      • Avoid creation of very long lists in chapters that mention numerous websites; and
      • Be easier to aggregate than to disaggregate, if necessary during publication (digest of personal correspondence from Kevin, 2009.09.10, retrieved by Sandy, 2009.09.18).
    • Listing websites within sections also will keep the listings closer to the contexts in which they are mentioned for cross-checking by peer reviewers, editors, and readers. - ltdproject ltdproject Oct 5, 2009

References

  • [In general, please follow] APA format - 5th edition [which is not the latest, but probably the most familiar and readily available (recast of personal correspondence from Kevin, 2009.09.10; retrieved by Sandy, 2009.09.18).]
    • The placeholders paragraphs in the reference section of the revised template (chapter_template2009b1.doc) are pre-formatted with hanging indentation.
      • Please note, however, that the APA Formatting and Style Guide to which the links from the original template in those placeholders point now appears to reflect 6th edition styles for Electronic Sources, in particular online periodicals with Digital Object Identifiers assigned.
